he received wound in the head,

His religious mania grew on him

praved in loud voice and made such

Artistss Incomes

New York Letter to the Inter- Ocean
 The earnings of the best artists vary, but
 not so much might be supposed. E. A.
 Abbey is said to make between fifteen and
 twenty thousand dollars 8 year. His draw
 ings for ''She Stoops to Conquer" are valued
 at about twenty thousand dollars. He is as we'll liked in England as here ard expects to make that country his home. He is build ing fine house there. c. s. Reinhart makes
 about ten thousand dollars year. Thure
 de Thulstrup, who is under contract to fur
 nish page CT double page to Earper's Weekly every week, is earning about ten thousand dollars year with his pencil. William Chase must do at least as we'll and could make more if he cared to. He has the finest studio in the country, with darky at the door and wondrous museum of brio a. brac inside, including collection of old watches. He goes to Holland to study Hais, or to Madrid to perfect his knowledge of Ve- | lasquez, every year. Charles Jay Taylor, of Puck and Harper's, studies as hard now that l he is making eight thousand dollars year
 as he did when he began his career. Arthur | Burdstt Frost, who got a fortune with as | well as in his wife, is now the strongest man | in picturing American contemporary life. l He too makes about eight thousand dollars, but he has a separate income of forty thou sand dollars year. Harry Fenn, pupil of | Birket Foster, used to get ten thousand dol
 lars year from the Appletons for his work | on "Pcturesque America" In American
 scenery drawing no one is his superior. He
 probably earns ten thousand dollars now by general work, and 80 does Alfred Parsons, | whose little country bits often appear with | Abbey's work. Black and white is now the | most profitable line of artist work in this | country. Water color and oil work are a
 trife stagnant, particularly the productions | of American colorists

PROGRESS OF A GREAT RRFoRN

PROGRESS OF A GREAT REFORM.
 The National Civil Service Reform League isn't dead. It is not even sleeping yet It has just put forth a report, through com mittee, of tEe progress and condition of the great reform which it was organized to SUD- port and push.
 This report is interesting, if not as cheer ing as the National Civil Service Reform League would like to have it. By far the greater part of the report is devoted to the condition and prospects of the reform at Washington. It points out that at the out set more was expected of the administration than could be reasonably demanded; that while MT. Cleveland won the confidence of many friends of civil service reform by his course previous to his nomination and by his utterances at the time, the reform was not the controlling issue of the canvass of 1884, and MT. Cleveland never accepted or pledged himself to carry out all the principles of re- form as held by civil service reformers and promulgated by the league. It recites the various declarations of the President on the subject, and then makes an examination of the facts to show how far these declarations have been sustained.
 Of course the committee find that ssthe administration, under enormous disadvan- tages and perplexities, has accomplished much for the reform of the civil service" They further say: s'The fragmentary results of reform which had been secured by pre- vious administrations have been fully main tained, while the aggregate of such results has been remarkably enlarged" The New York Times thinks MT. Cleveland may well be proud of this verdict, but is not yet satis- fed It says: Much as he has done, he can do much more. He has now a strength with the people that enables him, if he will, to defy the spells politicians, and this strength has grown in the direct ratio to his resistance to this class. He can now, if he will. cut loose from Senator German in Maryland and from the whole band of spoilsmen in Indiana and elsewhere with the certainty that every effort of theirs to revenge themselves will make him stronger yet. No President since Lincoln ever had frmer and closer hold on the confidence of the American people or so we'll deserved it. But all that he has done to win it puts it in his power to do yet more and better.
 The fact seems to be that there has been too much reform to suit the Democratic politi- cians and too little to please the Mugwumps. Perhaps it will be ever thus.

COMMUNICATION.

An Incident in MT. Beeeher,s College
 Career
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 A copy of your paper of last Saturday has just fallen into my hands. In it my atten- tiou is called to the article, 'tBeecher's first sermon" The letter of MT. Beecher in an- swer to MT. Dwight's inquiry brings to my remembrance so distinctly an important in- cident in the college life of MT. Beecher that am constrained to send you 8 note concern ing it.
 BeecheI makes such notable mention, was my roommate. He was a senior. It was my sophomore year, ,and Mir. Beecher's freshman. I am very confident it was in the month of March, 56 years ago. This very month a very powerful and extensive revival of re- ligion was then shaking the whole college community. This Moody Harrington had been 8 New Hampshire far mer, came into Massachusetts, and which I, then lad, attended. He afterward prepared for college and entered Amherst when about thirty years of age. He attained no rank 8 scholar in large class noted for it's scholarship, but, as MT. Beecher says in his letter, was Ia remarkable man for profound religious feeling, for fervid imagination and for remarkable elOquence in exhortation." So gifted was Harrington in these characteris- tics that during this great religious awaken ing the students would flock to the ''rhetori- cal room" where the Sunday morning prayer meeting was held, in expectation of hearing from the most impressive and attract i've speaker in the whole college com munity. Never shall forget the wonderful utterances which were wont on those occa- sions to come from the lips of that marvel Ous man.
 It was in the midst of this great religious movement that one day Henry Ward Beech CT came to our room-how distinctly I re- member-and with countenance betokening 8 mighty pressure upon his spirit said sub stantialiy: Harrington, am in great dis tress, in spiritual darkness; I don't think I have any religion. I've come to talk with you" My roommate took him into his bedroom and talked and prayed with him long time, and when the young man came out from that interview his face seemed radiant with hope and peace. Years after Beecher had become. famous, when we met and repeatedly would he speak of Harrington as having been to him spiritual helper beyond that of any other man he had known. From the day of that remarkable visit until he graduated Harrington took 8 great interest ill young Beecher and ''Log- town" and "Mlll Hollow" are names as fami- liar to me as Amherst itself; for in those districts college students were in the habit of conducting Sunday evening religious ger vice from year to year, and most notably among them in the time of secession stands the name of Henry Ward Beecher.

given, answered that the doctrine of the church was that the husband is master in the house," and that he had, therefore, 8 perfect right to open his wife's letters. M. de Pressense, the leading Protestant pastor in Paris, was somewhat less affirmative; though, as regards wives who had anything to fear from the exercise of the right, he SUD- ported the decision of the barristers, while in the case of good wife he could not see how it mattered either way. Alexander Dumas, looking at the question from the historico- philosophical standpoint, contended that what we know of the relations of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden clearly establishes the right of the husband to inspect his wife's correspondence. Mime. Peyrebrune's answer was also in the affirmative, though she added that the question was of no practical impor- tance, as compromising letters are never sent through the post. Mime. Adam was the only dissentient. In her opinion the husband who opened his wife's letters was nothing more nor less than blackguard

Count Their Dollars by the Millions.
 Letter to the Savannah News.l
 Ehret's wealth is estimated at between if teen and eighteen million dollars. He holds more mortgages than any man in this city, and he is the owner of vast blocks of real estate. A dozen German brewers, busied in piling up immense fortunes, are trailing in his wake. Jacob Ruppert, John Eichler, Monroe Eckstein, George Bechtel, the Kuntz Brothers and Peter Dodgers Sons are among them. Each of these is 8 millionaire and three at least are worth five million dollars apiece. For years the lager-beer field was left entirely to the Germans. Now, however, the Americans are coming to the front. They are credited with making better beer and with better business methods. David G. Yuengling and W. R. Abbott have almost national reputation as brew CTS, but the man who is ascending the ladder most rapidly seems to be James Everard. Either by merit or through shrewd business manipulation he has run his brewing into fashionable popu- larity, which is sending him up towards George Ehret in point of wealth. Everard owns half dozen breweries. He turns out one hundred kegs of beer 8 month Shed Shook is a silent partner in one of these breweries. He is silent and confding
 
 once. Then he walked into the counting room, looked at a huge wart on the book keepers neck, said ''Huh!" lighted cigar and disappeared. As he is drawing eighty thousand dollars year profit from the busi- ness he can we'll afford to amuse himself with poker and politics.
 The gigantic fortunes made in breweries within the last twenty years more than dwarf those of earlier years. Forty years ago New York's fayorite brewer was old Charley Wardlow. He kept a little beer saloon in Frankfort street patronized by sailors, prin- ters and the elite of Wall street. He was an Englishman who brewed his own aIe. His brewery was a little shanty on the out skirts of Brooklyn. Once month he closed his Frankfort street alehouse and shut him. self in the Brooklyn cabin until brewing was completed. A few old merchants smack their lips even at this late date when the vir- tues of Charley's ale are discussed. When the old brewer had made one hundred and fifty thousand dollars he sold out his little saloon and returned to England, where he died soon afterwards. He left his fortune to 6 son and daughter, who married an Amer ican. The pair came back here and went into business in San Francisco There her share of Wardlow's fortune was increased until it reached nearly million dollars. It was afterwards lost in one of the mining crazes that so often devastate the Pacific coast

The Presidents queer smoking outfit.


 Boston Travellers Washington Letter.
 President Cleveland is almost much of "nightowl' as was the late President Ar thur. MT. Cleveland, however, is an early riser, while MT. Arthur never had his break fast before eleven o'clock, and sometimes it was long after noon before he was ready for the transaction of public business. MT. Cleveland is fond of consulting with the members of his Cabinet and few personal friends until the early hours of the morning. One of his friends wished an audience the other day, and was somewhat astonished to receive as reply that ''the President will receive him any time after Il p. m.," and this is b. no means an unfrequent occur renee at the White House. During the day the President always wears a broadcloth Prince Albert coat, with dark trousers and a vest which shows very liberal display of shiIt-front. His crsvat is of black silk about an inch in width, and he ties it in an old fashioned bow.knot. It is during these evening chats and conferences that the Pres
